Former RIIZE’s Seunghan Allegedly Spotted Visiting Protest Wreaths At SM Entertainment
Former RIIZE‘s Seunghan reportedly reacted to protests outside of SM Entertainment.
Following the announcement that Seunghan would return to activities with RIIZE, a statement issued on October 13 stated that Seunghan decided to withdraw from the group instead.
This announcement followed massive protests against the idol’s return to the group, including the delivery of many flower wreaths to the SM Entertainment building.
SM was visited by many seeking to see the wreaths, and one such visitor shared an account of allegedly seeing Seunghan outside of the building.
In a post shared on a Chinese social media site, a netizens shared that while at SM Entertainment, they saw an individual outside they believed to be Seunghan. She shared that the individual was dressed like a trainee and that they looked gloomy while walking around and through the wreaths.
“I think I ran into Hong Seunghan by the flower wreaths at the SM Entertainment building…I was looking at the flower wreaths with a friend when someone walked up all dressed up like a trainee. We made eye contact; his eyes were long and thin. He walked slowly and looked at the flower wreaths seriously. The Korean fans there noticed as well and thought he was an idol or trainee. My friend thought something was off, went over and saw that he walked into the sea of flower wreaths. It felt like he was feeling gloomy, but he was wearing a mask and hat so it’s a bit of a subjective judgment. When he saw that we wanted to take a closer look, he walked out and left while walking beside the flower wreaths. We thought we were overthinking it. But at the end, after I said goodbye to my friends, I saw him at Seoul Forest Station. He looked like he really broke down. I took a picture. He walked towards the agency. To put it simply, he came from the agency, looked at the flower wreaths, and then went back. I’m suspecting that I really saw Seunghan.”
